Step 1
The Aqua Connect Home Network is compatible with all Pro Logic and Aqua Plus
controls operating with software revision r4.20 or higher and Aqua Rite Pro con-
trols operating with software revision r1.20 or higher. To verify software revision,
refer to your installation manual. An AQL2-BASE-RF Base Station (sold sepa-
rately) must be installed on your Pro Logic, Aqua Rite Pro or Aqua Plus before
installing your Aqua Connect Home Network. For detailed installation instruc-
tions, refer to the AQL2-BASE-RF instruction manual.

a. At the Pro Logic or Aqua Rite Pro, press the “Menu”
button (possibly multiple times) until “Settings
Menu” is displayed.
b. Press “<“ or “>” (again, possibly multiple times)
until “Teach Wireless” is displayed.
c. Press the “+” button. The pool controller should
now say "Press and hold Wireless button".
d. With the Aqua Connect Home Network close by
and powered up, depress the Teach button and con-
tinue to hold it down, until all 4 LEDs are on solid.
At this point you must release the Teach button.
e. The RF LED on the Aqua Connect Home Network
should be rapidly blinking. This indicates that Teach
Mode has been entered.
f. The pool controller should then report “Teach Wire-
less: Successful”. After this, the RF LED on the
Aqua Connect Home Network should always be
ON.
Step 3
Step 4
With the Aqua Connect Home Net-
work in the chosen location, plug in
the power cord. Plug the ethernet
cable into the Aqua Connect Home
Network and then into an open port
on the router. Wait for 30 seconds
and then look at the LEDs on the
front panel. What you should see is:
The RF LED should be on most or all of the time.
Step 5 Step 6
To control your Pro Logic, Aqua Rite Pro or Aqua
Plus remotely through the web, go to
www.aquaconnectweb.com where, after set-
ting up a new user account, you’ll be able to
enjoy a brief trial period. Call 1-800-HAYWARD
to subscribe for continuing web functionality. Be
sure to have your Aqua Connect Home
Network’s MAC address handy when you call.
Refer to Step 5 for the location of the Aqua Con-
nect Home Network’s MAC address. Once an
account has been setup, you should be able to
login and remotely monitor and control your pool
through an internet connection.
Find the last 3 characters of the Aqua
Connect Home Network’s MAC ad-
dress (on label beneath base) and
write them down. Now go to any PC
in your home network and open the
web browser. On your browser’s ad-
dress line, type “mypoolxyz” (where
x, y, and z are the last 3 characters
in the Aqua Connect Home
Network’s MAC address) and then press the Enter key (do not type “www” or
“.com”). The local server should start and your browser will display a page that
is similar to your pool controller. You should now be able to control your Pro
Logic, Aqua Rite Pro or Aqua Plus using this web page. If not, refer to the
manual for alternatives to this step.
